How Is This Possible?

“I have already settled it for myself so flattery and criticism go down the same drain and I am quite free.” ― Georgia O’Keeffe What an incredible question.

Hello, you who made the morning and spread it over the fields…watch, now, how I start the day in happiness, in kindness.” Mary Oliver It’s pitch dark. And bitterly cold.
